Filter not working in this Scenario

[Akki]

Hi,
  I have scenario where i have filter option enabled for a drop down.
While binding from database value of budflg="T" but while displaying in UI, I will be displaying it as "True".
Now if i try to filter the the option with "True" value - It says no record to display as budflg will contain "T".
 how to filter in this scenario ?? Please help

 <telerik:GridTemplateColumn HeaderText="Budget" UniqueName="budflg" DataField="budflg"  FilterControlWidth="90%"
                                AllowFiltering="true">
                                <ItemTemplate>
                                    <asp:Dropdown ID="drpDownBdgt" CssClass="txtbx" runat="server" "
                                        Width="99%">
                                    </asp:DropDown>
                                </ItemTemplate>
                                <FooterTemplate>
                                    <asp:Dropdown ID="drpDownFooterBdgt" class="txtbx" runat="server"
                                        Width="98%">
                                    </asp:Dropdown>
                                </FooterTemplate>
                                 <HeaderStyle ForeColor="Red" />
